[kevinok]

you can get good comps for cheap

i basicly have what you have but it was only 300 bucks

[Vagrant]

I have a pretty good one for 500 bucks

[[WDL]Major]

Yeah my computer is expensive because Dell uses the most expensive RAM out there. If you are planning to buy a Good computer get that cow computer (GateWay).

[Rambo]

I have an alienware gaming comp 4000$ It runs really fast and u can install a lotta big games on it without lag

[kevinok]

the comp i have is a dell and i have almost every thing you have and it was only 400

[[WDL]Major]

LOL, What are the specs?

[kevinok]

they are pretty close to yours and i cant really remeber them off the top my head it's my dads comp

[Millions Knives]

If you want the best computer for the cheapest price, build your own. Gateway, Dell, Campaq, and the others all charge WAY too much. Expensive RAM has nothing to do with the fact that they overcharge. To stay on topic, here is my computer for 1300.
AMD Athlon 2800 XP
Geforce 4 Ti 4600
512 MB DDR RAM
SB Audigy 2
Well thats most of it

[kevinok]

no these days dell is really really cheap

[[WDL]Major]

Yeah... i guess we bought it at the wrong time lol.. oh well.

[Vagrant]

I don't check up on prices so i don't know

[kevinok]

yea the price have dropped so much of late

[[WDL]Major]

[eatmorchikin6464]

you built it! man i could never do that. mine is a dell and it is like 2000

[The First]

It would take me 1 billion years to make a computer! I wouldn't know where to start :mrgreen:

[eatmorchikin6464]

yeah. i dont even know what those things are that you used to build it

[The First]

I look at a computer chip and it looks like nothing, but actually it stores a ton of information in it!

[eatmorchikin6464]

yeah people are smart if they are able to make these

[The First]

Well they have to go to college and learn first

[eatmorchikin6464]

yeah i know. and they have to study alot (it must suk)

[The First]

Yes, I bet it sucks so bad they sleep in class

[eatmorchikin6464]

yeah. but then they end up bein rich

[Vagrant]

My dad is always making new computers.... we have 7 in the house 6 are desktop, 1 is laptop, and 3 desktops and the laptop belong to him....

[[WDL]Major]

Lucky..

[Vagrant]

Avoid one word posts. Thank you

[Zeta_Riticuli]

mines decent, it gets the job done. 2GHz 40GB 256 DDR RAM

[jason]

lol i got a crappy pc for 50 bucks a 166 mhz um.. the best video card um.. and whatever but it came wit a 17" screen but i dont usse dat one for internet use hm.. my mom and uncle build pcs a lot so i dunno what the best one i have

[[WDL]Major]

Avoid one word posts. Thank you
Sory I wont do it again

Anyways I think any computer shouldnt have over 80 or even 60 GB of space. because you will never even use that much, and if u do your computer will most likely go extreamly SLOWWWWW.. (unless u have a super computer..)

[jason]

my uncle has 2 like 200gb hard drives and they are full and his pc is still fast

[[WDL]Major]

WOW, VERY NICE!!!! I never knew any 1 could have that much stuff on 1 computer. Man, I wish my parents could build computers..

[ubergmr]

my computer is a is an HP with wingows 98 that crashes 4 times a day. so take that my computer is the bomb

[Danielle]

well my mom works with computersand sometimes she gets parts cheaper and my dad will use them and build computers so ours is good but cheap

[CastleFreak04]

that is cool....i htink to buy all teh parts at a store and make it urself is more expensive than getting it done by a store...well its actually the same but u have the quality of u doing it...so it could be better actually...they could make a mistake and over look it and when u do it u can make it perfect

[nin]

Here is a pic of my PC for anyone who cares =) I used to have the wires hidden, but I had to do something to it and never got around to hidding them again =/

[Kerry]

wow nin, thats awsome how big is that?

[Vagrant]

Nice nin. I can obviously identify that red board..

[nin]

=D I love my red board!! =P The case weighs 30 LBs bare.. It's pretty big.. Right when I bought it ThermalTake released the XaserIII though.. Bah! It's a conspiracy! lol I plan to upgrade soon though. =D

[Solean]

Speed mostly depends on the OS you use. If you use Windows with a p4, you just get partial performance. Try this page to determine the best OS to use.

[Vagrant]

That's pretty funny.... especially with windows NT air

[jason]

[CastleFreak04]

[jason]

[CastleFreak04]

[K_and_H]

[LizardRob]

This was bumped from 4 years ago by a multi-posting noob, guys. I wouldn't keep posting your specs.

[Matt]

By golly your right...

[Generic]

This thread was kind of interesting now that it is bumped, because we can see how much the cost of hardware has dropped in 3-4 years. Most $2000 rigs in the this thread can be built now for $300ish.
